Mitochondria have multiple roles in important cellular functions, including the production of adenosine triphosphate (ATP), cell signalling, cell growth, cell cycle progression and cell death (Raimundo [2014]).
Impairment of SMC function generally leads to an increase in the production of anucleate cells, indicating a direct or indirect role in chromosome segregation (Table 1).
The Th17 cells have a specific role in immune function through the production of effector cytokines.
Androgens also have an anabolic (synthesizing and constructive, rather than degradative) function in stimulating the production of skeletal muscles and bone as well as red blood cells.
It is increasingly clear that B-cell function beyond the production of immunoglobulins.
These cells contribute in a major fashion to gastrointestinal innate immune functions such as the production of antimicrobial peptides and mucus and maintenance of epithelial integrity.
In summary, our study described an HIV-specific CD8+ T cell population that mediated in vitro suppression of HIV-specific effector function through the production of TGF-β.
Thus, ΔΨm is used as an indicator of cell integrity [ 23], which is critical for normal function of mammalian cells, maintaining the function of mitochondrial proteins in the production of ATP and reactive oxygen species (ROS).
In animal models for studying tumour vaccines, temsirolimus enhanced vaccine activity by enhancing effector T-cell function and enhancing the production of CD8 memory T cells.
Mice fasted for two days, and some human cancer patients fasted for three to five days, which resulted in temporary lower white blood cell counts, but ultimately in the production of more fresh new white blood cells, which are crucial to immune function.
Genes generally express their functional effect through the production of proteins, which are complex molecules responsible for most functions in the cell.
